Travelling

This may seem like a silly question – but many people have asked just that, and to be honest, after a few bad days / daze we wondered, are the same. But that began after the sedatives – they really asked the question is better, why not you? After that all children receive so exploring the world in the way adults can not imagine. You can explore the differences and similarities between the backgrounds, cultures, societies, etc. honest, unaffected. Asking the right questions and answer honestly, what they see – which can be both good and bad. It can often be much simpler than most people do not speak the same language. . . anyway. And children to participate – they do not observe restraint in the wings, judgments about what they think, understand – right in the middle of things and have children learn through participation in life in a way that no book or video can never show them. OK – so we can not even try to come up with great reasons to travel with children. . . So why the question: Why have children? Before this question please let me give you a little history. About 5 years, we have to allow our children the opportunity to live in Bolivia for a year to spend time with their family born (I was in Bolivia and raised in Australia) decided to learn Spanish especially the experience of living in a different culture (of the retrospective exhibition at the “culture” is completely naive and completely problematic – especially in this context. The subject deserves an article of its own.) We knew that the journey would be a challenge, but we do not have the magnitude of the task ahead. And work began at the minute, we decided to do. Thus, for the last five years we have worked, saved money, worked to save more and more to finance the trip. We used a series of fundraisers, the tactic has worked well, we’ll discuss in a later article. As we approached the departure date, we have cheap flights to new, etc., to ensure that our calculations were right, boys, we got a shock. Not only have prices increased, but we have discovered a whole series of hidden fees and charges – by definition, should not. What was worse was that most of these duties and taxes of minimum rates for children (if any are available). We knew that most airlines charge 75% of adult rate Children – OK better than nothing. However, browsing for lodging and tourist attractions, shows the travel market objectives, “couples” or “adventurer”. The only place where families have been included in their site featured in Resorts and theme parks, etc., and Bolivia. In general, we found it very difficult for a housing for a family of five find, as most options are the best hotels triplet. Staying in a hotel, it will need two bedrooms or has anyone sleeping on the floor or sharing a bed – and it is usually us – fun. After the discovery of hidden couples the raft trip with accommodation and package tours for small families, we are more clear than ever why many families can not afford to travel. At home (Australia), most places offer some sort of discount for families like the movies, trains, etc., but we found it difficult to pay such discounts on travel, and in some places more than 11 children are adult prices! It is clear that this would be a very expensive proposition, and we decided to go further, we appreciate the balance of costs to believe. However, we have sought ways to reduce and cover the rising cost of travel to find. During the next series of articles we will discuss some of the ways we have managed to do. We will also discuss other topics that will help our children and the most of your trip includes: Traveling with children and education; sell Sanity () which “will they remember the question, disease / health; keep in touch nostalgic trip /, and the unexpected, cope with culture shock and more. If we leave our children Australia 9, 8 and 5 years and have all been very little Spanish. It ‘acted on his second trip to Bolivia. In 2002, my grandmother was very ill. We wanted to take for children and for them to know their grandmother. Happy to announce, she is still with us today’ hui. Anyway, five years later, they were very reluctant to leave friends and family – we all were. Makes you a thought for immigrants and refugees… and I’m happy to say we are more than half of our journey with many adventures (and hidden costs to come?). We are all with a ball, despite the unexpected, and we know we made the right decision. It would for us to let us know your thoughts – What do you think interesting about traveling with children and why? Enjoy:>
